48 results for irrational traders

In this paper, we present a multi-period trading model by assuming that traders face not only asymmetric information but also heterogenous prior beliefs, under the requirement that the insider publicly disclose his stock trades after the fact. We show that there is an equilibrium in which the irrational insider camoufl…

We show that the Novikov-Shubin invariant of an element of the integral group ring of the lamplighter group Z_2 \wr Z can be irrational. This disproves a conjecture of Lott and Lueck. Furthermore we show that every positive real number is equal to the Novikov-Shubin invariant of some element of the real group ring of Z…

We study the structure of the stable norm of Finsler metrics on the 2-torus with a focus to points of irrational slope. By our results, the stable norm detects KAM-tori and hyperbolicity in the geodesic flow. Moreover, we study the stable norm in some natural examples.

We give examples of finitely presented groups containing elements with irrational (in fact, transcendental) stable commutator length, thus answering in the negative a question of M. Gromov. Our examples come from 1-dimensional dynamics, and are related to the generalized Thompson groups studied by M. Stein, I. Liousse …

We study the geometry of the Margulis region associated with an irrational screw translation gg acting on the 4-dimensional real hyperbolic space. This is an invariant domain with the parabolic fixed point of gg on its boundary which plays the role of an invariant horoball for a translation in dimensions 3\leq 3. Th…

Modeling preference rankings with salient features to explain irrational choices.

problem Estimating rankings from noisy pairwise comparisons with irrational choices.
method Salient feature preference model with maximum likelihood estimation.
result Strong performance of maximum likelihood estimation on synthetic and real data.

Given a discrete subgroup of the isometries of n-dimensional hyperbolic space there is always a region kept precisely invariant under the stabilizer of a parabolic fixed point, called the Margulis region. While in dimensions 2 and 3 this region is a horoball, it has in general a more complicated shape due to the existe…

Investigates market dynamics with informed traders and high-frequency traders.

problem Trading large orders in a market with multiple high-frequency traders.
method Analyzes a three-period Kyle's model with a normal-speed informed trader and multiple anticipatory high-frequency traders under different inventory pressures.
result Surprising results: improving HFTs' speed or prediction can harm them but benefit the informed trader.

We develop a model to study the role of rationality in economics and biology. The model's agents differ continuously in their ability to make rational choices. The agents' objective is to ensure their individual survival over time or, equivalently, to maximize profits. In equilibrium, however, rational agents who maxim…

result Obtained irrational eigenvalues in Laplace spectra for the two hypersurfaces.

We introduce a framework for coverings of noncommutative spaces. Moreover, we study noncommutative coverings of irrational quantum tori and characterize all such coverings that are connected in a reasonable sense.

An informed broker optimizes trading strategies in a market influenced by many traders.

problem Optimizing trading strategies for an informed broker in a market with many traders.
method Developed a mean-field game approach to derive equilibrium strategies for both the broker and traders.
result The broker's optimal strategy involves a Stackelberg equilibrium, leading and traders following.

PRZI traders adapt their quote-prices based on a strategy parameter s, affecting market dynamics.

problem Understanding the dynamics of continuous double auction markets with adaptive traders.
method Introduced a new zero-intelligence trader PRZI that uses a parameterised probability distribution to generate quote-prices. Used a stochastic hill-climber algorithm to adapt strategies based on market conditions.

In a very simple stock market, made by only two \emph{initially equivalent} traders, we discuss how the information can affect the performance of the traders. More in detail, we first consider how the portfolios of the traders evolve in time when the market is \emph{closed}. After that, we discuss two models in which a…
